Congratulations on Your Arrest

  Chapter 453 [The meaning of Lake Toya]

The sword of Muramaru was also forged by Zamen Teyō, the ancestor of Kamado Tanjuro. It took almost half of the meteorite iron he got by chance to create [Muraamemaru], but Kamado Teyō felt this knife The **** storm that might be set off was sealed without leaving any knife inscriptions on the knife.

   Then, Kamado Tesho used the remaining meteorite iron to forge twelve large sharp swords, which were later known as the Kyoto Supreme Great Broadsword Twelve Works.

   It is said that the sharpness of the twelve knives he carefully forged was even higher than that of the demon sword [Murayu Maru].

   It's just that it doesn't have that weird "growth".

   This is also one of the reasons why the second ruling made it possible for the demon sword [Mura Rain Maru] in Puso Wiseman's hand to cut off the twelve workers very easily after a thousand years.

   Therefore, if you want to forge a sword that can fight against [Murasame Maru], the only way is to recast the Supreme Kuaisao Twelve Works, and re-smelt the half of the coquettish Celestial Iron.

   Then, on this basis, forge a peerless weapon that is not inferior to [Mura Rain Maru].

  However, at this moment, Kamado Tanjuro was still shocked when he saw the dizzying twelve supreme swords that killed life and death gathered together in front of him!

   Immediately afterwards, he was shocked for a moment by Higashinohara's extraordinary "big hand" recasting, and immediately after recovering, he couldn't help but cast a deep glance at the other party.

   "The patriarchs said,

   That was the 'wrong' knife. "

   At this time, Kamado Tanjuro did not immediately answer whether he could or not.

Higashinohara was silent for a moment, staring into the eyes of the other party and said, "There are no 'wrong' swords in this world, only wrong people. The ancestors of the Zaomen family probably never thought that the sword would end up in the Judgment Division. The Second Judgment is full of blood, in order not to let the knife drink more blood, what we have to do now is to make up for the mistakes made by your ancestors."

  He is not an eloquent king of mouth.

   But these words were sincere, and Tanjuro Kamado couldn't help being stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and looked up at the clown mask on Higashinohara's face.

Although he took advantage of the chaos after the battle at White Swan Harbor to leave the small fishing village with his family and children. What happened around this man in the last period of time.

   The right thing to do?

  This time, Kamado Tanjuro did not remain silent for too long, and used his foot to hook out the wooden box that was placed aside. After kicking it open, it was full of blacksmithing tools such as anvils, hammers, and iron tongs.

"let me try."

  He said so in his mouth.

   Higashinohara turned his head slightly and took a look inside, and found that he didn't have any facilities like a furnace.

However, Tanjuro Kamado seemed to see Higashinohara's doubts. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and put it near his mouth. The index finger and **** of his right hand suddenly shot up a mass of red flames, heading towards Higashinohara. Slightly smiled.

  The corners of Higashinohara's mouth twitched, and he shook his head in his heart, saying "The times have changed".

   Immediately, something came to mind again, and he couldn't help asking, "How long will it take?"

   As the saying goes, a hundred tempered steel.

  Although Zamon Tanjuro has awakened [Red Flame], it still takes a lot of energy and time to combine the twelve knives into one.

  Kaomen Tanjuro heard the words and looked up at the old-fashioned wall clock on the wall that he did not know where to pick up. It is now 4:30 in the afternoon, and it is not yet dinner time.

   He saw that Higashinohara seemed to be in a hurry, and after pondering for a while, he said, "Come and get it tomorrow morning."

  Need an overnight stay?

  He knew very well that this time was short.

  That is to say, the descendants of famous craftsmen like Zaomen Tanjuro, who have also awakened the ability of the fire element at the top of the talent sequence, it may be difficult for an ordinary blacksmith to do it without a week of kung fu.

   But still too slow.

  But this knife is very important to him.

  Although Higashinohara defeated Yavuz Bate of the ninth and fifth ranks in the World Bank Building today, he would not think that his current strength can be compared to the opponent's second referee, Puso Wiseman.

   Not to mention the gap between the two Ninth Five Realm powerhouses themselves,

Higashino was able to kill Yavuz Batt to a large extent because [Hungry Ghost Way] restrained Yavuz Batt's ability. It is not such a good thing to meet Puso Wiseman, let alone the latter's strength Still above Yavuz Bhatt.

certainly,

   Another very crucial point is the weapon.

   If there is no weapon that is strong enough to resist the demon sword Muramaru in the opponent's hand, then it only takes a few encounters, and the few remaining big sharp swords in Higashinohara's hand will all be broken.

   From this we can see how important it is to him to have a big sharp knife that can fight against [Mura Rain Maru].

  But the reality at the moment is that time is tight. Higashinohara hesitated for a while, and finally decided to take a gamble. He nodded and said, "These knives are all here with you. I will pick them up tomorrow morning."

time does not wait.

  He was going to send Dorothy Alita out of the sewer in Upper Kyoto first, and when she woke up, he entrusted Shura to go to the pier of Baling County with the other party, and then he came back to pick up the knife.

  Kaomen Tanjuro also seemed to see the urgency of Higashinohara, he couldn't help but solemnly nodded, and suddenly asked, "What are you going to call this knife?"

  Swordsmiths will leave sword inscriptions on the sword body after tempering is completed. The feat of recasting the twelve sharp swords into one was commissioned by Higashinohara, so it should naturally be named after Higashinohara.

   Higashinohara pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, "Then it's called 'Lake Toya'."

   "Lake Toya?

  Is that the crater lake in the southwest of Hokkaido? "

Zamon Tanjiro nodded thoughtfully when he heard the words, and couldn't help praising, "Lake Toya is said to be a natural lake formed after frequent volcanic eruptions and submersions. The guest's recasting of the Supreme Knife Twelve Works is also a fire. Rebirth, the name has a profound meaning, it seems that tonight I must concentrate on not disappointing the guests."

   Higashinohara was stunned by Zamon Tanjuro's praise, and then he smiled wryly and shook his head, "Just do your best, don't put too much pressure on it, I don't mean that."

   "Huh? Then what does it mean that the guest named 'Lake Toya'?" Kamado Tanjiro asked.

   Higashinohara hesitated for a moment, and a long and interesting memory suddenly appeared in his mind.

  He smiled and said, "Well, if you insist on saying it, it probably means 'everything is invincible, nothing is indestructible'."

   "Huh?!"

  This time it was Kamado Tanjirou's turn to be stunned.

  Even though he stood there and thought for a long time, he didn't understand how the volcanic lake "Lake Toya" could be connected with "Invincible"?

  But when Higashinohara was about to go out, he thought of something again, and quickly called out to stop Higashinohara.

   "What's wrong?" Higashinohara turned around.

   Ding, clang, clang, clang —!

  Seeing Tanjuro Kamado pull out a black knife bag out of nowhere, throw it on the ground and display it in front of Higashinohara.

   Higashinohara lowered his head and glanced at it, and suddenly his eyes lit up. What was placed on the ground was a knife.

   There are seven blades in total, and each blade is shining with a cold light. It looks extremely sharp. In terms of craftsmanship, it is not much worse than the twelve knives forged by the ancestors of the Zaomen clan.

  The only thing that is lacking may be the piece of meteorite iron that was unintentionally obtained back then.

   "This is a knife I've forged in my spare time over the years."

Zaomen Tanjuro scratched his head a little shyly, and continued to Higashinohara, "Although it is not comparable to the work of the ancestor's supreme sword with twelve skills, but if you stay here during this period of time without a weapon in hand, You can use it for self-defense first."

Higashinohara was still hesitating where to get a knife to deal with unexpected situations that might arise during this time, but he couldn't help but feel a little happy when he saw this, and he said neatly, "Thank you very much, how much do I need to pay for these. "

At the beginning, he entrusted Zaomen Tanjuro to recast the broken [Great Chidori Ten Characters] and [Phoenix Double Blades], which cost a total of 20,000 patacas. Can't sleep a wink.

   And seven sharp knives,

  The money will naturally have to be settled with the other party.

   "Just hold it and use it first." Kamado Tanjuro smiled when he heard this, and didn't seem to care too much.

  The reason why he took the risk to help Higashinohara this time was entirely due to the fact that Higashinohara saved his wife and children by chance in the warehouse at the port dock during the day.

   Repay kindness with kindness.

  He will definitely repay this kindness.

   Higashinohara also understood the attitude of Kamado Tanjuro when he saw Zamen Tanjuro. He is not a coy person, so he could only thank him again.

time does not wait.

  Next, the two of them didn't say much, and Higashinohara performed a rare technique. Hidden Sword Summoning, which included seven big sharp knives.

  He picked up Dorothy Alita, who was sleeping beside him, and turned around to leave after opening the curtain. Staying too long will only bring unnecessary trouble to Kamado Tanjuro.

   Shura, who was waiting outside, saw Higashinohara who had gone and returned, and found that the expression on his face seemed to be a little lighter, as if he had done something important, he opened his mouth and still didn't ask any more questions.

  The next step is to hurry.

  In the dark and damp sewer, the little boy Will led the way, and followed behind with Dorothy Alita in his arms. The dark hole kept swallowing their backs.

  The afternoon passed in silence, only the sound of footsteps and gurgling water remained in my ears.

  Unknowingly,

   Three hours passed.

   Looking at it at a glance, there is still a dark passage ahead that can't be seen at a glance.

  The only thing that has changed may be the exhaustion on the face of the little boy Will, just for the reward of one thousand yuan and the promise to his mother and brother, he is still gritting his teeth.

In fact, it's not just him. Even though Shura is a capable person, he was seriously injured by Francis Bart in the battle at the World Bank Building during the day, and now he has been walking with a limp for three hours, and there is an uncontrollable tiredness on his face. color.

   "If you're tired, you can take a rest first." After a moment of silence, Higashinohara suddenly said.

   "No, no, no! Sir, I'm not tired." Will seemed to really want to be worthy of the guide's salary.

   After all, this is the first time he has gotten so much money, upon hearing this, he quickly ran up like a frightened rabbit, waving his hands desperately to show that he was not tired.

   Higashinohara smiled and said, "What a spirited guy, you are not tired, but I am."

  Wil was taken aback for a moment, and then he realized that Higashinohara had been holding this sleepy tall woman all the way, without even changing his posture once, which meant that one person was carrying the weight of two people while moving forward.

  He looked embarrassed for a moment, and wanted to say something, but found that he couldn't do anything.

  If it is placed in the area where the sewers gather, and encounter such a leading job and generous guests, let alone a thousand dollars, even if it is a hundred dollars, he would like to find a small cart to be pulled by someone.

   But there is obviously no such condition here.

   Higashinohara didn't know what the little guy was thinking. He said this purely to give the two of them a step up. In fact, he really didn't feel too tired holding Dorothy Alita.

   It’s not that Dorothy Alita is slender and light in weight. With a height of 1.8 meters, it’s impossible to be so light.

   It is true that Higashinohara is now developing towards a "hexagonal warrior" with the blessing of attribute points.

  Up to 90.3 [Physique] and 69.9 [Strength] attributes are placed here. If conditions permit, he will not be out of breath even if he holds Dorothy Alita around the upper Kyoto city circle.

   Taking advantage of the rest time, Higashinohara glanced at Shura, then at Will who was lying on the wall leaning against the wall like a puppy sticking out his tongue, and said without much hesitation,

   "Can I ask you something?"

Will heard Higashinohara speak, although the other party didn't shy away from him, but he was still a half-grown child and pointed to the pipe on the other side with a wink, "Sir, I'll go there to rest first, and let the wind pass for you. "

   "He is a sensible child." Higashinohara said.

   "It's hard for a child who has lived underground since birth to be ignorant." Shura shrugged, turned his head to look at Higashinohara, and then asked, "What's the matter?"

   Higashinohara’s eyes fell on Dorothy Alita, he hesitated for a while and said:

   "I should go back again to get something and pass through the Baling County sewer at the junction. When she wakes up, can I trouble you to take her to the Baling County Wharf?"

   "You want to go back?"

   Shura was a little surprised when he heard the words.

  In his opinion, the city has now become a dragon's pool and a tiger's den.

  If he can leave here safely, he may not appear within the upper Kyoto metropolitan area for several years.

   "Yes." Higashinohara nodded.

  He didn't say much.

  Sura also didn't ask much.

   Didn't even ask the other party how to get out.

  He's the kind of guy who puts everything on the line when he makes a decision.

   It's like taking over the mission issued by Higashinohara to attack the World Bank Building this time. He prepared a retreat for everyone in the Jaeger Organization, but he didn't leave any retreat for himself.

  If it wasn’t for Higashinohara this time,

   There's no way he could have gotten out of that building.

   Therefore, no matter what the reason is for Higashinohara, since he has made a decision.

  He will naturally respect the other party's decision.

   Higashinohara saw that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked with a smile, "Have you thought about what to do after you go out? Continue to be a hunter?"

"if not?"

Shura lit a cigarette, and wisps of smoke slowly rose between the flickering of the fire, and said with a wry smile, "A city like Shangjing is most indispensable for capable people, but this city can stand on the street and bathe After all, only those with celestial abilities are the only ones who can live in the sun, and mice like us can only find something to do for ourselves."

   "Didn't you consider going to other countries?"

   Higashinohara asked.

   "Where is it not like this?"

  Sura licked his lips, took another deep breath and said, "Even if it is the powerful Targos and St. Malo Empire, so what if they become a big man, in the eyes of the real nobles, they are still just dogs, unless."

   "Unless what?" Higashinohara asked.

  "Unless one day, the collapse of the parliament building, which symbolizes the world government, can no longer cover the eyes of the common people, and the nine families, which symbolize the nobleness of heaven and power, completely disappear and can no longer cover the sky of the common people.

   Otherwise,

  It’s not the same everywhere.”

  Sura took a deep breath and exhaled the **** of the cigarette, standing up while leaning on the wet wall.

   "Okay, it's almost time to hurry."

  He could already see that the man in the pale clown mask in front of him was not tired, he only proposed to take a break halfway because he was worried about them.

  When Higashinohara heard what the other party said, a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

  Seeing that the other party got up to hurry, he didn't say much, nodded and said, "Okay, then we will set off."

  Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking,

  Suddenly, the little boy who was resting and helping to watch the wind suddenly came from the slanted field. He scrambled over and said in a low voice, "It's not good, sir! There is someone! There is someone in that pipe."

Ok?

   Higashinohara frowned slightly when he heard the words, and listened carefully.

   Sure enough, in the chilly wind of the sewer, there was a sound of conversation.

  The next second, in the dark space, a beam of lights pierced the darkness without warning and shone.
